The Brenner Pass is a mountain pass through the Alps between Austria and South-Tyrol. It is located at 1370m and is one of the principal passes of the Alps.

The cars shown are the worldfamous VW Type 1 "Beetle" and the Type 2 "Microbus", 
icons of the German post-war transportation. Those cars were used to travelaround europe and the world and are - nowerdays - loved and restored icons as well.

South Tyrol, the "Drei Zinnen"

Update 15th June: Just watched an austrain documentary about the history of ascents of these mountains. ("Die dunkle Seite der Alpen"/The dark side of the Alps)

Famous rock climber Alexander Huber talks about the milestones in alpinism performed on the Nordwand" of the great Zinne. Alexander Huber himself set two records: Free solo Ascent of the "Diretissima" and Ascent of the "Panaroma" of the Western Zinne, which is told to be the most difficult alpine challenge in the world!
